In this video we focus on Kohei Horikoshi, the mangaka behind My Hero Academia, now a cornerstone of modern shōnen. A lifelong fan of both manga and American comics, he racked up setbacks and near‑misses before forging his own distinctive voice. From promising one‑shots like Shinka Rhapsody and Tenko, to early serials such as Crazy Zoo (a menagerie of absurd humor and strange beasts) and Barrage (Sensei no Bulge), Horikoshi explored wildly varied settings packed with off‑beat heroes. He finally struck the perfect balance in My Hero Academia (Boku no Hero), blending heartfelt homage to U.S. superhero comics with psychological drama and the pure‑blooded codes of nekketsu shōnen. 👉 If you love flawed heroes, coming‑of‑age stories, and worlds where emotions explode off every page, this video’s for you. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ — My socials — ➤  / amzouzdono ➤  / amzouzdono ➤  twitch.tv/amzouzdono Business inquiries: ➤ [email protected]
